Birthday Boy

Wow, time is flying and am I behind yet again in posting photos and anything in general I guess.

So our little man turned two last week on the 14th. Two years old, I can't believe it. We had a party at a neighbors house last Saturday the 16th with jumpy houses. Christopher LOVED it. All of the kids loved the jumpy houses. We had one big one for the big kids and a "toddler" one for the smaller kids. It turned out to work great since it was only Christopher and Aiden in there and the loved it.

He was a man on a mission in that thing!

And we were really lucky that it was a beautiful day. Not too hot, but perfect.

They did a lot of running into walls, things, each other and falling and laughing so hard!

Even Katherine joined in the fun

Everyone loved the food. We did hot dogs and homemade chili (by moi!) and other stuff.

People just relaxed and chilled and little tiny babies like Brooklyn napped and hid from the sun.

Pictures blurry, sorry :(

Thanks Marie for making the trip!!!

David finally got to relax after grilling for everyone.

For dessert we had cupcakes and cookies. I made yellow cupcakes and banana chocolate cupcakes that people seemed to enjoy.

(she's going to hate this photo!)

And I made monkey cookie pops for everyone

(This one did have two ears before Jackie got to it!)

see...

Then near 2pm, Christopher was taken home for a monster 2 1/2 hour nap (yeah!) and the big kids continued to play.

Taco thought it was a great time for a nap.

Some videos:

Christopher before the party. He had been playing in the other room so I put some music on so we could get ready. He came running in to dance. He ended up wanting me to dance with him, but without the camera.

overall, we had a lot of fun. Christopher had a blast. There are more photos to come of the party and of him opening gifts. I just need to get them uploaded. Happy Birthday little monkey!
